High school football players from the class of 2024 locked in their college commitments this week during the early signing period, which ran from Wednesday through Friday.
With some of the best-rated recruits having signed their National Letters of Intent, the class rankings are beginning to take shape and giving us a good idea of which teams attracted the best talent this time around.
The usual suspects like Georgia, Alabama and Ohio State are right there at the top, and Miami continued its upward climb too, while other teams like USC aren’t quite as high as they were last year.
Here’s a look at the top-25 classes as of Dec. 23, based on composite rankings from 247Sports.
